* An exchange on ''SaluteYourShorts'' is inspired by Hamlet's observation that "a man may fish with the worm that hath eat of a king, and eat of the fish that hath fed of that worm" and therefore that "a king may go a progress through the guts of a beggar."-->'''Pinsky:''' Think about it. When you die they stick you in the ground and it's the worms that eat you up!-->'''Z.Z.:''' Then somebody digs up the worms that ate you and use to catch fish which somebody else eats.-->'''Donkeylips:''' So wait a second guys, when we had fish sticks the other night, I could have eaten a fish, that ate a worm, ''that ate Elvis?''-->'''Z.Z.:''' You could be burping up the King as we speak!
